A Snow Fence,

Superintendent R. Blckensderfer, of
the Idaho division, is at present con-
structing. with force of 200 men, a
snow fence, which, when completed,
will be mile long. Those who have
seen the new fence say that it is erected
on top of the snow, some twenty feet
from the ground. It is said that the
great trouble in the cuts on the Utah &
Northern is that when the snow block
ade first came that too small cut was
made to just leave the snow pillow pass
through, and now whenever a snow
comes the snow pillow has no chance TO
throw the snow to one side as the sides
are thoroughly packed. No doubt there
will be trouble in Beaver Canyon until
spring.-Butte Miner.

A Long-Lost Daughter Found.

CARMI, Ill, February 12.-George w.
Chism, a poverty-stricken and intern
perate ex-soldier living at Centreville,
ten miles north of this city, was a few
days ago made happy By receiving
81 500 for disabilities receiv,d during
the late war, with monthly allowance
OF S24. TO be paid during his life. re
has long been known as worthless,
shiftiess fellow, and those who knew
him best, on hearing OF his luck, re-
marked that the money would soon be
s1uandered; and the prophesy bore the
mark of tu!dl'meut when it was known
that lobe, as be is famiIiarly called,
had spent not less than 81 900 of the
sum to-day.
The gossips were surprised to learn
that the money had been spent by
Chism in the loving search OF long
lost daughter, who had been the pride
of his heart and The object OF long years
OF yearning. Ten years ago, when
Chism was very poor, and confined to
his bed by sickness his daughter Annie,
aged Z years, was placed in the care Of
Ben Johnson, a more fortunate we'll
so-do neighbor. Johnson Concluded to
60 west, and lett for Kansas, taking
With him the little girl. When Chism
had recovered, ali trace OF Johnson's
residence was lost, and, unaided, the
father did all his limited means would
allow to find the lost child, but in vain.
THE SEARCH RENEWED.
On receiving the pension money he
declared he would find his daughter if
it took every cent. The search was re-
newed, and this week he heard that the
girl had been working in cotton
factory in Evansville, Ind. He
went to that city, but uld ear
nothing of the girl, and after
doing everything possible to obtain
some clew was about to give up in
despair, when he heard that a girl
named Annie Chism had been an in
mate of the Catholic Sisters Asylum.
The present matron could give no in
formation. Her predecessor was found
and from her it was learned that the
girl had been placed with tue family of
German farmer, twelve miles in the
country. The farmer YVES sought and
stated that the girl had left his house
to live with the family of his brother,
but had left him. Several other changes
of residence were made, and the girl
was finally located as a servant in an
Evansville hotel, where the father ana
daughter were reunited. The 1ather
was here to-day after more money, re-
turned to Evansville, and will bring the
daughter back tomorrow, The father
can speak only English, whIle the
daughter has a German eduea ion, and
can not converse in her mother tongue.

PALMISTRY.

The reading Of character as we'll as the
telling of ones fortune by the shape of and
the lines in ones hands like the science OF
has of late years attained quite
a distinction. Though it may he said to be
a science and understood by the ancient
Egyptians, and reduced to exactness and
profit by lhe Gypsies of later times, it is
now generally understood that there arr
quite number Of schools and professors
who claim that the palm ofthe hand Isl com
plete and perfect index to the man, not only
as he is but as he has been and will be.
We extract the following from an exchange
as the method adopted to properly read the
lessons Of the hand:
Small hands show the man who plans:
large hands the man who performs. Lon
hands indicate an appreciation and per
formance OF detail; short hands broad
grasp of generalities. Hard hands show
strong muscular power and enduring activ-
ity. Elastic or sinewy hands show energ.
rather than endurance, vitality withou;
propsrtionate muscular power, tendenc.,
to mass the entire strength into brief anu
effective ottort.. The soft hand shows little
muscular power, but grace and activity III
light labor. The plastic, or soft, non-elas
tic hand shows lack of endurance, q low
state of vitality and muscular power, weak
ness passivity, and possibly disease. H ar,
hands show an appreciation for practi
cal realities soft hands an appreciation o.
the imaginative faculties, If the palm is
thin, skiny and narrow, it denotes a weas
or feeble mind. anarrow intellect, genera
feebleness and aabbyness Of character T.
the palm is firm and well proportioned il
indicates intelIig will power and al
evenly-balanced mind Again, if it is 81
wide and strong as to be out of proportion,
with the fingers, the thumb and the rest o
the body, it indicates selfishness and sens
uality; while going still further in the same
direction it indicates brutality unrestrainee
by intelligence. A hollow palm denotes
failure and misfortune. It is always tn,
rule that the normal and well-proportionee
hand is the best. ! =

PANEGYRICAL.

The following tribute to one of the
gseatest generals Of the Southerl con-
federacy comes from Gen. Lord VOL
seley. In an article on Robert E.
Lee, he speaks with unbounded en-
thusiasm Of the personal character
and military genius Of that officer.
The article says;
. If he had not been controlled by the pc
litical leaders of the Confederacy, Gen. Lee
would have catured Washington after The
battle of Bull Run. He was the greatest
American of the century, and is worthy o.
an equal pedestal with Washington amongst
the worlds great generals. He was a most
perfect gentleman, of a state celebrated fol
chivalry. Just, gentle, generous where else
in history is there great man whose whole
life was a record of duty so nobly done?
We happen to know from a source
that cannot be questioned-a relative
of one Of the members of President
Jefferson Davis cabinet, Mrs. judge
Hughes of Richmond, Va,, whom W.
| met fourteen years ago, that this story
concerning the possible capture Of
| Washington after the battle of Bull
Run is corroborated by that lady, who
attributed the failure to advance or
Washington to the inordinate envy o1
Jeff Davis Of Generals Beauregard
and Stonewall jackson. He feared
their military success and was willing
to jeopardize the chances Of the South
and therefore ordered Lee not to fol.
low up their victory. :
